SILWEN

Dearest Silwen,

I have received your letter today. I am sending this letter to Eregion. I am not sure it will get to you, for I am afraid you have already passed by.

I now fear Father Elessar has read Huinlas's poem. You should be much more careful with your things. I do not know what he might say to me. I am worried, though I know not why.

Huinlas has returned? I am not certain this gladdens my heart. Has the King spoken to Huinlas privately?

Where do you think you will be next? I am debating where to address this letter.

I feel it is not your fault for misplacing the letter. I should not have sent you the poem.

Mellonlín,

Arwing

PS Please if you must, burn this letter, but do not let any other soul read what I have written.
